    INSPIRED project. Fastlane Shark Tank.

    Although we could try to do video and make it exclusive to the Insiders, I think this should just be structured as an event. You don't really see business deals taking place on the internet except for the aforementioned shows. The biggest hurdles are going to be screening applicants and event...

    I was in the Navy. There's something of a rivalry there with Marines (albeit artificial). I never played into that nonsense though. Branch never mattered to me. We're all on the same team. I really appreciate the detailed post. I believe you answered my question. The only way to know...

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Sounds like you've got the details all buttoned up. As I already said, the idea sounds great and solves a legitimate problem. Would love to hear more on your progress in the future and the challenges you end up facing. Best of luck to you in getting this thing running.

    AMA 
    This a great thread. Rep transferred. I do have one question. Have you been able to transfer these skills to cold-emailing? If so, what dynamics do you have to overcome, and how do you do it? I understand that this would be the equivalent of online poker in contrast to live poker. It...

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Well, if the proprietary element will be strictly through contract agreements, disclosures, etc. I would recommend talking to a business lawyer about how to construct these. The important thing to is to get exclusivity of the arrangement for a predefined period of time. I would provide a...

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Your idea sounds very good and interesting. I hope you're taking measures to make your process and service proprietary. There are a lot of giants in the medical and bio-medical industries, and they may try to crush you if this idea gains traction.

    A Monthly Ejuice Subscription Service

    EXECUTION 
    Are you keeping an eye on the legislation surrounding this industry? I use E cigs, but the reason I haven't tried to make it a fastlane is because of what's inevitably coming. It's a double flanked attack. On one side, you have tobacco companies wanting this stuff gone for obvious reasons...

    My Fastlane Idea (It's simple!)

    IDEA 
    If it's an inexpensive luxury style watch, who are the people that would actually buy it? What about people that specialize in bargains? Who likes luxury style watches, but typically doesn't have the money to afford one at a high end price? Guys in school maybe? Typically, I've found that...

    My Fastlane Idea (It's simple!)

    IDEA 
    Find some popular Youtubers that do watch reviews. Offer them a free watch (or multiple colors) for a review. Could be some cheap publicity, and if their camera work is good, it'll bring out the best in your product. You might want to include some notes for the reviewers highlighting some...

    My Fastlane Idea (It's simple!)

    IDEA 
    Did you ask for customer references on that ad agency that's doing your branding? If you're going to trust someone with your business... your life... they better have a proven track record for what you're trying to achieve. Just because someone has an office and a company doesn't mean they're...

    Respect the process

    MINDSET 
    I'll definitely check it out. Thank you for the reference and motivating post. I don't want anyone to tell me entirely how to do my business, but I'd still like to learn as much as I can about areas in which I have no experience. I don't need someone else's treasure map, just the compass.

    Respect the process

    MINDSET 
    I figured as much, but wanted to ask just in case it was more black and white. Do you know of any good resources/books on cultivating a successful virtual environment-based business? Or has this just been process built through trial and error? Thanks.

    Respect the process

    Helpful post. I just got back off vacation from Vietnam to England. My wife is from there. I've considered e-commerce as a fastlane, but found It could be difficult to manage quality and fulfillment being overseas unless your target market is Vietnam (which I doubt) or in my case, England...

    I appreciate the encouragement. No worries, I intend to catch up regardless. After the challenge, I think it would be great if we could do take away reviews of what we found most valuable from all or our favorite resources. Enjoying the thread, thanks!
